Bag Packing April 21. 2015

Today we got together during our lunch hour to begin the labour intensive process of packing the donated items into bags that we can take with us on the trip to the DR.

I was completely amazed by the quantity and quality of the stuff that was donated from across the valley by family and friends as well as other contacts (church, school or yoga class!)

We sorted the items: shoes, adult female clothes, adult male clothes, youth and infant clothing, medical supplies, school supplies,  cosmetics, health and hygiene items, soccer balls.....you name it.....tons and tons of items.




Time is flying past....in a week or so we will be on our way with these huge hockey bags to distribute!!

Thanks to everyone who helped support the trip with these products!

  1. I don't think they'll have enough room on the plane for tons and tons of things... hehe ;)

    1. You might think it's funny, but we have to slog it all to the airport! We'll let you know how it all works out. There are about 11 bags weighing in at 49 lbs. each!
